At some time the Peebles District operated a nice Mack B tandem-axle pumper-tanker. Is this beauty still around ?

Edgeworth operated this 1983 ALF Century with 1000 gpm-pump and 500 gallon-tank. John Schmidt photo
Juergen,
The Kittanning Air Unit was built by Pierce, and originally served Cranston Heights, DE.
Also, the Peebles Mack B Pumper/Tanker is long gone. I'm not even sure where it went to.
